VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - April 9, 2010) - Goldsource Mines Inc. ("Goldsource" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:GXS)(FRANKFURT:G5M) is pleased to report that it has completed drilling 27 core holes for the winter 2009-10 exploration program at its wholly-owned Border Project ("Border") located near Hudson Bay, Saskatchewan, Canada which encountered several thick coal zones including 126.5 metres in the Niska 107 deposit. Drilling to date has discovered 17 coal deposits at Border with good potential for additional coal discoveries (see attached map: http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/gs.jpg). The winter program also included 5 drill holes on the Ballantyne property as well as 8 holes on the Company's quarry claims in Manitoba.

Current coal resources at Border, as established in the Company's NI 43-101 "Technical Report on the Border Coal Property, Resource Estimation" prepared by Moose Mountain Technical Services dated December 24, 2009 and available at www.sedar.com, include:

/T/

-- Indicated Resources: 63.5 million tonnes

-- Inferred Resources: 89.6 million tonnes

-- Speculative Resources: 18.7 million tonnes

/T/

The highlights of the winter program are as follows:

/T/

-- The most significant coal zone intervals occurred in the Niska sub-basin

in holes BD10-119 and BD10-136 with true, aggregate thicknesses of

approximately 64.3 metres and 126.5 metres respectively. Two in-fill

holes (BD10-124 and 140) were drilled at previously defined Chemong 03

and Pasquia 02 coal deposits which confirmed the significant true

aggregate thickness of 74.0 and 53.0 metre coal zone intercepts,

respectively.

-- Infill drilling has given better definition to the Niska 107 and 108

deposits where the emphasis was on upgrading Inferred Resources to

Indicated Resources. A majority of the 89.6 million tonnes of Inferred

Resource at Niska are expected to be converted to Indicated Resources.

-- Winter drilling identified a new coal deposit at Niska (1 metres) and a

second one at Leaf Lake (2 metres). 27 drill holes totalling 3,768

metres were drilled at Border. Fourteen drill holes intercepted

aggregate coal zone thicknesses ranging up to 126.5 metres. Those holes

that did not intercept coal were generally on the periphery of known

coal deposits. Of the 27 holes, 3 were drilled for geotechnical and

hydrological data.

-- A total of 177 coal samples were sent to Loring Labs in Calgary, Alberta

for proximate analyses and additional testing.

-- Two geotechnical and one hydrological drill holes were completed, the

results of which will be used in the Preliminary Economic Assessment

(PEA) that is currently underway.

-- Marston Consultants of Calgary, AB and EBA Engineering Consultants (EBA)

of Vancouver, BC began the PEA, which is scheduled for completion in the

3rd quarter of 2010. Several coal technologies for energy production are

under review including clean coal power generation, coal quality

upgrading, coal gasification and coal to liquids.

-- Environmental baseline work under the direction of EBA has begun with

emphasis on collecting data and reporting on results for the PEA.

-- Five drill holes totalling 569 metres were completed at the Ballantyne

property in Saskatchewan to test airborne geophysical targets. No coal

was intercepted in these holes.

-- A total of 8 holes were completed at the Pine River property in Manitoba

with 2 coal intercepts from 1 to 3 metres thick. Drilling was

discontinued pending completion of the consultation process between the

Government of Manitoba and First Nations groups regarding the work

program.

-- Under an agreement with Westcore Energy Ltd. to identify coal targets

using Goldsource proprietary geophysical tools, the success criteria set

out in the agreement have been satisfied and the Company is entitled to

receive, amongst other things, an additional 1 million shares of

Westcore and a 25% working interest in Westcore's coal lands in

Saskatchewan and Manitoba. Westcore has recently announced the discovery

of several significant coal deposits adjacent to the Border property in

which Goldsource now has a 25% interest. Please refer to the Company's

news release dated December 11, 2009 at www.goldsourcemines.com for

further details of the agreement.

J. Scott Drever, President stated: "We believe we were successful in achieving our main goals of converting the Inferred Resources in the Niska deposits to the higher category of Indicated Resources and confirming that we have exceeded the threshold target of 100,000,000 tonnes of Indicated Resources to support a potentially economic operation. The success of Westcore Energy in the area is important to us in growing our resource base as we have now earned a 25% interest in any resources that may develop as a result of their new discoveries."

Summary of Winter Program Coal Intercepts at Border:

Numbering of the drill holes for this phase of exploration continues sequentially from previous programs beginning at BD09-116. Names of deposits are based on an identifier in the general location and the Areas are designated according to the discovery hole numbers.

Initial identification of the intervals of coal in the table above is based on visual and downhole geophysical characteristics. The Company cautions against placing undue reliance on the visual and downhole survey observations of the coal until the results of the analytical work have been announced. Sampling and laboratory test work has commenced at Loring Labs in Calgary on 177 samples with compiled results anticipated by early June 2010.

Drill holes BD10-117, BD10-118, BD10-126, BD10-128 to 131, BD10-134 and BD10-137 contained no significant coal intercepts. Three engineering holes were completed to initially test geotechnical and hydrological parameters for the PEA.

This current phase of drilling is now completed and all data will be compiled and incorporated into an updated NI 43-101 Technical Report which will include an updated resource model and the results of the PEA which is underway with completion anticipated in late Q3, 2010.
